Right then, that is it from this run-fest where Punjab Kings just edged Gujarat Titans. Every team in the IPL now has player at least one match and now it's time for the second round. It will be kicked off with a clash between Rajasthan Royals and Kolkata Knight Riders at the Barsapara Stadium in Guwahati on 26th March, Wednesday. That will begin at 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT), but as you know you can join us early for all the build-up to the match. Until then, cheers and goodbye!
Arshad Khan comes out to bat now with two balls to go.
Shahrukh Khan is the new batter for GT.
Arshdeep Singh will bowl the final over. Gujarat Titans need 27 runs off the last over.
Rahul Tewatia is the new batter for the Gujarat Titans. Also, Vyshak Vijaykumar will bowl the penultimate over. Gujarat Titans need 45 runs in the last two overs.
Strategic Break! A couple of tight overs from Punjab Kings and the momentum has shifted again. However, Gujarat Titans still have the firepower to chase this down, but the pressure is now on them to deliver under it, and Jos Buttler will be the key for them here. PBKS will hope to break this partnership to turn the tide even more in their favour as it will not be easy to bowl with all the dew on the outfield. It is going to be an exciting end to this run chase. Do not go anywhere!
Change? Yes, Marco Jansen is back on. He has conceded 25 runs in his 2 overs.
Punjab Kings now use their Impact Sub as Vyshak Vijaykumar comes in for Priyansh Arya. Also, Marcus Stoinis comes back into the attack now.
Impact Player Alert - Sherfane Rutherford walks out to bat as the Impact Sub for Gujarat Titans replacing Prasidh Krishna.
Halt! Sai Sudharsan is suffering from cramps here and the physio is in to check on him. We are good to continue now.
STRATEGIC BREAK! An ideal end to the Powerplay for the Punjab Kings! The wicket, coupled with the break, gives them a perfect opportunity to stall the Gujarat Titans' momentum. The departure of Shubman Gill is a significant blow, and now Sai Sudharsan will need to step up the tempo. Jos Buttler remains the key to Gujarat's fortunes in this chase, while Punjab will look to tighten the screws with spin in the middle phase as the fielding restrictions ease. It will be pace after the break in the form of Marcus Stoinis.
Jos Buttler walks in at number 3.
It is a double change here. Glenn Maxwell comes into the attack.
Who will operate from the other end? It will be Azmatullah Omarzai.
